Fighting doesn't help a team win

Fighting no toughness yes... other than Risto, McCabe and Bogo... anyone else tough on this team with skill.  Dahlin will get there with another 20 lbs, need a couple of forwards with some moxie and strength.  Jack has the size but plays like a primo... maybe Mitts and Tage will grow into it, but really cant think of a forward that can do both.  Tampa has 3-4 forward guys who do.

As a metric, no. But I've seen the Sabres super geeked after one of theirs throws down.

I agree...we need bigger, tougher forwards...we have a small team

Redmond, does he get an NHL contract from the Sabres Ink? Or is he heading for the coaching route?

He's 30 and only broken out offensively the last 2 seasons. I doubt he gets much of a sniff, unless they throw him a bone like last season on a tryout deal for a few games. The Amerks season ends 10 days after the Sabres so there may be some room in there.

Like most, I thought Remi Elie was a non-factor with the Sabres. Looked like an NHL skater without NHL hands or head.

He was also a 40th overall pick who has 4 goals and 7 points with the Amerks.

The Sabres had other "filler' players on their roster, yet they put in a claim, so they probably thought he has an NHL shot.

Does he?

He's an ideal 13th forward
